1. THE STRANGE CASE OF Dr HENRY HOWARD HOLMES

1893 in Chicago
Tesla lights the worlds fair
Be a guest at The Castle
If you dare

Devil in disguise as a doctor
Built the hotel of hell
Muted screams in gas chambers
Hundreds fell

Flesh
Stripped clean from the bone
Death
Skeletons are sold
Damned
Butcher with no soul
Mad
Dr Henry Howard Holmes

Macabre is the mind of this terror
Watching his victims die
In his lab in the cellar
Evil hides

Gruesome mastermind of deception
Mortal demon on earth
Plead his case as possession
From birth

Flesh
Stripped clean from the bone
Death
Skeletons are sold
Damned
Butcher with no soul
Mad
Dr Henry Howard Holmes


2. EATERS OF THE DEAD

Twelve vikings clad with sword and helm
A lone Arab seeking himself
Across the seas the thirteen sailed
To save a king's curse ridden realm

Human flesh cannibalized
Come the fog and worm of fire
Odin's warriors fought and bled
with the eaters of the dead

Out of the fog the monsters come
But yet they bleed just like humans
Men in bear skins that eat the dead
The viking king takes their queen's head

Human flesh cannibalized
Come the fog and worm of fire
Odin's warriors fought and bled
with the eaters of the dead

The king victorious
The witch queen poisonous
His life fading thus
Into Valhall

The night leads to the fight
Cannibal warriors strike
The king come back to life
To kill them all

The viking prayer is spoke
To strengthen heart and hope
Odin accepts his soul
Into the Hall


3. KEEPERS OF THE DEVILS INN

Neath the prairie moon
Upon the Kansas plain
Was a family's trading post
Where evil found his name

Murderous family of robbers
Bender's of evil and sin
Here there was death by the hammer
At the Devils Inn

Many an unwary traveler
Came to an early demise
None of the Bender's were captured
Slipped into the night

They'll drain the life
Out of your pocket and your head
And bury you out by the shed
A trail to hell that led to deeds so foul and grim
The keepers of the Devils Inn

Who was it wielding the hammers
Laying the blows to the head
Mother or son, father or daughter
A family to dread

Seances and bloody murder
Fall through the trap door of hell
Crimson and gore in the cellar
Where the bodies fell

So evil
Family that feed off of fear
She devil
She'll cut your throat ear to ear
Souls that fell
Beyond the boundaries of sin
Fiends from hell
Keepers of the Devils Inn

They'll drain the blood
Out of your pocket and your head
And bury you out by the shed
A trail to hell that led to deeds so foul and grim
The keepers of the Devils Inn


4. DEADLY NIGHTSHADE

Science of cells
Gnome from hell
That men created
In the lab themselves

The planet plagued
The gods outraged
Man's desecration
Of our DNA

Reanimate
Hell's spawn awaits
Deadly nightshade
Hell's gate

Technology
That breeds disease
Contamination
Across the seven seas

A war with death
Aim for the head
There's only one way
To kill the living dead

Reanimate
Hell's spawn awaits
Deadly nightshade
Doomsday
Reanimate
Hell's spawn awaits
Deadly nightshade
Hell's gate


5. ACHERONOMICON I - TOMB OF THE UNNAMED ONE

You have found me and woken my spirit to life
In the ruins of Python your tomb we did find
I have slept here in waiting for eons of time
You have slaughtered my comrades
And enslaved my mind

Seek out the magic gem
And place it in my hand
The Heart of Ahriman
The Serpents of the damned
One more shall rule this land
And end the reign of man

Out of the ashes of Python
Raised from an unholy grave
The last of Cthugha's dark titans
Venomous magik of chaos
Would ravage the earth like a plague
Come Acheron

Tis the time of the dark rift aligned with the sun
I'm possessed by your bite
Poison runs through my blood
You will serve
And protect me help raise the Old Ones
Rendered helpless by magik my life is undone

Seek out the magik gem
The Heart of Ahriman
So Acheron can live
The serpents of the damned
One more shall rule this land
And end the reign of man

Under the statue of Dagon
Monster that I cannot name
Son of the father of demons
There will be no hope of salvation
Vampires will rise from the flames
Come Acheron

Out of the ashes of Python
Raised from an unholy grave
The last of Cthugha's dark titans
Venomous magik of chaos
Would ravage the earth like a plague
Come Acheron

Under the statue of Dagon
Monster that I cannot name
Son of the father of demons
There will be no hope of salvation
Vampires will rise from the flames
Come Acheron


6. ACHERONOMICON II - THE HEART OF AHRIMAN

No choice of mine
The Heart I have to find
His venom binds me to his will
Serpentine wine
That blurs my possessed mind
With nightmares of the gem that kill

I'm cursed to search the land
Across the Stygian sand
The Heart of Ahriman
The key to Acheron

I've search for years
Enslaved by magik's fear
To find the Heart of Ahriman
This sorcerer's key
Can raise the dynasty
That was the mighty Acheron

I'm cursed to search the land
Across the Stygian sand
The Heart of Ahriman
The key to Acheron

I found the tomb
Where hid the gem of doom
I feel my master call to me
Into his hand
And now I fear the earth shall bleed

I'm cursed to search the land
Across the Stygian sand
The Heart of Ahriman
The key to Acheron


7. ACHERONOMICON III - END OF DAYS

In the hand of the unnamed one
The Heart of Ahriman burns bright
Alien science or black magik
Pythons purple towers rise

The time is come
Acheron
Raised from the dust
Acheron
The serpents rise
Acheron
Mankind's demise

Metamorphose of the planet
Mountains crumble to the sea
Come the tide of war and chaos
Now the race of man shall bleed

The time is come
Acheron
Raised from the dust
Acheron
The serpents rise
Acheron
Mankind's demise

Gleaming spires touch the sky
Vampire flights every night
Serpent eyes none can hide
Mortal cries from the fires

Midgard's fate war and pain
Ancient hate man made slave
All hope fades world in flames
Loss of faith end of days

Inside the temple of the Old Ones
The Heart of Ahriman still beats
Bringing the plague of decimation
The likes the world has never see

The age of man is gone forever
The sons of demons rule the earth
Born out of fire a new world order
Brought forth by Acheron's rebirth
